I had issues with his trying out Linux series, but that is not one of them, and I’m tired of seeing him be shat on because of it.
Firstly, he was trying to install Steam via instructions he found on PopOS’s website. Even if he did do something stupid (and I would argue he didn’t really), it is not the fault of the end user that doing that can completely fuck your install. It should not be possible to do that, yet it was due to a PopOS packaging error.
Yes, he did receive a generic warning about how by proceeding to attempt this installation, he could cause damage. Hidden in a wall of text of hundreds of package names.
But do you know what else has scary messages like that? Android. Windows. MacOS. A whole host of smart devices. Any new user could easily think that message was normal and would appear any time you try to install something via the terminal.
End users are used to seeing scary messages like that, and they’ve become numb to them. Deflecting criticism of that PopOS bug by saying “well there was a warning, so actually it’s the end users that are idiots and PopOS/Linux is actually perfect” doesn’t help anybody.
